4.2 has packages in experimental. We need the 4.2.2 release really so I think we've missed sarge.

Currently we're building '''4.0.6''' everywhere and tracking its progress here. Bear with us.

Because buildds are broken and don't check build-depends and do dep-wait stuff automagically the plan to get this into unstable is to upload in 5 stages (yes, 5 *sigh*) with the stuff in bold with urgency=high.  * gtk2-engines-xfce
 * xfce4-icon-theme
 * xfce4 (the meta package)
 * '''libxfce4util'''
  * '''libxfcegui4'''
  * '''libxfce4mcs'''

If you are building this yourself then you'll want to build the bits in bold and install them as you go and then build the bits at each level.

When we upload to the buildds we rely on appropriate dep-waiting.
Line 41: Line 56:
'''Need to release 4.0.6'''

Need to fix:
  * Sort out -session.
   * Backport the --disable-tcp code from CVS HEAD
   * Backport the fix to start the Desktop/Autostart stuff even when there is no saved session from CVS HEAD

Mail sent to Rudy Godoy and the bugs asking about these. No movement since April.
 ''Rudy's made packages but we need to get these uploaded. I'll start my delicate persuasion again I think :)''

1. Debian packaging of xfce4

This is probably really dull for anyone except SimonHuggins and to an extent DanielSilverstone.

2. Plan for 4.2

4.2 has packages in experimental. We need the 4.2.2 release really so I think we've missed sarge.
